Farewell Angelina
F# C#
The bells of the crown
F# C#
Are being stolen by bandits
F# C#
I must follow the sound
The triangle tingles
F# G#
And the trumpet play slow
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The sky is on fire
F# C#
And I must go.
C#
Thereʼs no need for anger
F# C#
Thereʼs no need for blame
F# C#
Thereʼs nothing to prove
F# C#
Evʼrythingʼs still the same
Just a table standing empty
F# G#
By the edge of the sea
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The sky is trembling
F# C#
And I must leave.
C#
The jacks and queens
F# C#
Have forsaken the courtyard
F# C#
Fifty-two gypsies
F# C#
Now file past the guards
In the space where the deuce
F# G#
And the ace once ran wild
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The sky is folding
F# C#
Iʼll see you in a while.
C#
See the cross-eyed pirates sitting
F# C#
Perched in the sun
Shooting tin cans
F# C#
With a sawed-off shotgun
And the neighbors they clap
F# G#
And they cheer with each blast
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The skyʼs changing color
F# C#
And I must leave fast.
C#
King Kong, little elves
F# C#
On the rooftops they dance
Valentino-type tangos
F# C#
While the make-up manʼs hands
Shut the eyes of the dead
F# G#
Not to embarrass anyone
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The sky is embarrassed
F# C#
And I must be gone.
C#
The machine guns are roaring
F# C#
The puppets heave rocks
The fiends nail time bombs
F# C#
To the hands of the clocks
Call me any name you like
F# G#
I will never deny it
A#m Fm
Farewell Angelina
A#m Fm
The sky is erupting
F# C#
I must go where itʼs quiet.
